It is found that, when a dilute gas expands quasistatically from 0.40 to 5.0 L, it does 210 J of work. Assuming that the gas temperature remains constant at 300 K, how many moles of gas are present

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]n=0.033mole[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Initial volume [tex]V_1=0.40L[/tex]

Final Volume[tex]V_2=5.0L[/tex]

Work [tex]W=210J[/tex]

Temperature [tex]T=300k[/tex]

Generally the equation for Ideal gas is mathematically given by

[tex]W=nRTIn\frac{V_2}{V_1}[/tex]

[tex]n=\frac{W}{RTIn\frac{V_2}{V_1}}[/tex]

[tex]n=\frac{210}{8.32*300In\frac{5.0}{0.4}}[/tex]

[tex]n=0.033mole[/tex]
